I think this should be the link for the poll —it may only work for you if you’re a facebook user and logged in.

>>Did Barack Obama deserve to win the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize?
Note: To see the results you must vote!
One comment from the comments page
>>Obama was president just 12 days before the nomination deadline, He got the award Friday, Oct 9th, not for what he has accomplished; But for what the Nobel committee hopes he will do. I laughed out loud when I read this it was funnier than any of the cartoons in todays paper. Then I got to thinking. Its not really funny after all. It’s actually sad that the committee could not find anyone that had accomplished anything to deserve this award; But gave it to someone, whom they hoped would accomplished something.
Was browsing the web when I came upon this threead. Figured id share info about a related event recently.
Not sure if any of you had seen another poll months back that raised eyebrows as well.
Will you vote for Obama in 2012
Yes : 129,745 (24.5%)
No : 375,628 (70.8%)
Undecided : 24,946 (4.7%)
A bunch of people were disputing the accuracy of the poll and it became a fairly heated debate. I started to browse 2008 election related polls and found that the majority were heavily in favor of Obama.
Now for the funny part.
I found not one but many comments comments from people arguing that facebook polls are accurate and that the anti Obama people just couldn’t face fact.
The kicker is that upon cross referencing those with the new poll, many of those very same people were saying facbook polls are never accurate and nobody should bother putting any thought into it.
